Just Words

But here’s a quote from a press conference on July 16th, where he addressed the public pressure to curb government spending, that he and the Congress have been facing:

“….Some of these decisions are tough…but they don’t require us to gut Medicare or Social Security…they don’t require us to stop helpin’ young people go to college…they don’t require us to stop, you know, helpin’ families that have got a disabled child…they don’t require us to violate our obligations to our veterans…and they don’t require quote-un-quote job killing tax cuts…”

What, exactly, was he talking about? None of this stuff was ever brought up in the first place. Congress never discussed gutting So-So Security nor cutting off the needy. And what, exactly, is a "job killing tax cut"? Has this idiot learned nothing from historical precedent? Tax cuts create jobs, and bring more tax dollars into the US Treasury. Barry's an idiot, a fool, or a liar - or perhaps all three.
